Polly Esthers

«Do a little dance make a little love get down tonight»
«I don’t mind you coming here and wasting all my time»
«I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because (This is how we do it)»
Do you like any of these songs? If you answered yes then you might like Polly Esthers.
This club is located inside the some what out of date Stratosphere hotel.
If you are into clubs that are packed full of beautiful people, expensive drinks, and fancy décor then this place is not for you. Polly Esthers is just as out of date as the hotel it is located in. The reason I like this club so much is because it is nothing like the typical Las Vegas club. The people who are usually found in this place are not the best looking, best dressed, or even the best smelling people (it gets really hot in this place) but they are so much friendlier then the beautiful people you find at the high end clubs. Polly Esthers has different rooms that are themed like different decades. They have a 70’s room, an 80’s room, and a 90’s room. Each room obviously plays music only from that decade. The main reason I like this place so much is because when you pay the $ 40.00 cover charge to get in that includes all your drinks. That’s right, $ 40.00 for unlimited mixed drinks and beers all night long.
Don’t get me wrong, I still love places like Tryst and LAX but why pay all that money just to drink with the cool kids.
If you like getting smashed for cheap while listening to 80’s rock then this place is for you, just don’t expect to see any super models or famous people here.

It was free and it was still wack.

There is nothing to do at the Stratosphere. It’s a cheap hotel and that’s about it. The gambling here sucks and the food is far from Vegas quality (just has Vegas price). Guess it’s the same with their clubs…
We came here around 3am on a Thursday and there was no line. After telling the guy at the door that we only want to check it out and not about to pay to get in for an hour… he let us in with no problem.
There was only one room opened and there must have been only 20 people there. You could hear crickets…
However, the music was pretty good and we actually ended up having fun. The drinks were $ 12, which was no surprise.
As we were leaving (drunk…), we noticed Darth Vader and the Brady Bunch props. Of course I had to take a picture… I look retarded in both of them… feel free to look and laugh. :D
Not a bad place… but I think I only liked it because it was empty. I like having bars/​clubs all to myself.

Polyester. Yes, its a cheap and durable material, but its uncomfortable and stuffy and makes for giggly fun when someone rocks a 1970’s vintage polyester leisure suit.
The club? Just as cheap, but uncomfortable and stuffy. Only, without the fun and giggles. Regardless of the polyester leisure suits, technicolor afros, or ridonkulously flared jeans…
The décor is gimmicky and tacky, which would have been a fine fit for the themed nightclub IF it weren’t executed so half-@ss…
At $ 40 for the «all you can drink [well-​drinks]» cover, the ghetto-​trashtastic crowd is ALMOST bearable… almost. For the most part, the same human refuse and deviance found in other clubs can be found here in higher concentration, less pretense, and more desperation. Ech!
This is the nightclub for you if… 1) you REALLY need a mix of 70’s/80’s/90’s/00’s music, and/​or 2) you just CANNOT deal with the bureaucracy of getting into higher-​end club. If you must, bring your own crew/​dance-​partners with you… and an anti-​skeeve handwash.

+1 for a little flirty-​flirty… =)

my friend and her boyfriend love going to Polly Esthers whenever they are in Vegas (her boyfriend lives there). A bunch of our friends went to Vegas together so I really wanted to see what Polly’s was like. At first I was shocked at the entrance of the place, it DID look like we were going into a carnival. We paid the $ 40, walked inside and it looked like a warehouse but the huge Brady Bunch thing was pretty awesome. $ 40 for all the well drinks you can drink was perfect. Anywhere else you’d pay $ 15 PER drink and the $ 40 covered tons. I ended up giving my friend who paid the non-​alcohol price my drinks and nobody ever noticed.
only one club was opened and they made the music a «mix» of all the clubs. Only one room being opened was kind of lame because I was really excited to see the other rooms. the music was fine, the alcohol was fine, the place was shady… ehhhhhh.
will i go back? no, probably not. the next night we went to Body English at the Hard Rock and it was much much better.

Nice dress you realize you did not have to wear…$ 50
Heels that stick to the sticky floor…$ 90
All-​you-​can-​drink drinks from the bar…$ 40
Tipping…$ 0-​$ 10
Getting killed in a shady, dark, unsafe part of town with horrible music playing in the background… priceless.

Huh? This was the only nightclub in Vegas that we had to pay for and was not worth one penny. Let me note that the entrace was not appealing. I felt like I was paying to get into a fun house at a carnival. We came here on a Saturday night and the crowd was pretty scarce. Awkwardness, bordem, and confusion was felt while I was here.
We had a much better time leaving the place and heading over to Subway O’Sheas and meeting this Canadian hockey player.

Stepped foot in here and wanted to hang myself off the ceiling.
This place SUCKED!
These dudes that my friend made us hang out with told us to go here. WE paid the cover charge because the dudes were sooo lame to begin with. Drinks here are comparable to drinking shots out of a toilet filled with piss.
Crowd was mainly desperate looking dudes of all races– except for asians so me and my friends felt like we were FOBs… eventhough we’re american made! yikes.
I’ll only step foot into this establishment again if I’m in a dark depressive mood and contemplating suicide. I’ll request the dj to shoot me in the face.

Are you not a fan of the «club scene» in Las Vegas? Do you get tired of getting dressed up, just to be able to get in the club? Do you just want some place to just dance your ass off, without anyone caring how cool you look doing it? Well, my friend, Polly Esther’s just might be your place.
First off, their dress code is casual. In fact, the funkier you look, the better they like it. Second, there is rarely a line. Some might thing, well if there is no line, how good can it be? Well, there’s no line because the place is HUGE inside. There are a total of four rooms, all playing different types of music. If you’re a disco fan, then they have the clubs namesake 70’s room. You can even belly up to a shell of the Partridge Family bus (known as the bar) and order a Brady Punch.
If your style is more in the last 25 years, there are three more rooms just for you. You can hang out in the 80’s room (called Culture Club), complete with it’s very own DeLorean. You can head to the 90’s room (called Nerve Ana) and sit with Forrest Gump on a replica of the bench he sat on in the movie. Finally, you can go to the 2000 room (called Suite 2000) if you’re interested in listening to more current music.
All in all, this is a club where virtually anyone can have a good time. So, lace up your British Knights and kick step your way down to Stratosphere to hang out at Polly Esther’s Nightclub.

Polly Esther’s is an awesome place for your friends with ADD. It’s located inside the Stratosphere in the casino area. I went to this place on my 26^th birthday last Saturday night. Some friends of mine from work with birthday’s around the same time invited me to tag along. Like any club in Vegas, it helps to have a really hot girl or two in the group to get in easily.
You walk in down a hallway and then kinda meander about until you stumble across one of the four themed rooms. The first one you’ll probably find is the 70’s room. It comes complete with a Saturday Nigh Fever-​esque dance floor. The DJ in this room plays all the disco you can handle. You can also take the Alice position in a huge Brady Bunch board for a novelty tourist photo. The next room you’ll likely encounter is the 80’s room. There’s a huge Pacman game on the wall, but sorry, it’s just there for decoration. Lots of 80’s all the time here. A good mix of new wave and rock. There’s a 90’s room that plays lots of rap and alternative and also features a white Ford Bronco ala the OJ chase. And finally the 2000’s room which plays the greats from this decade. Most all hip-​hop.
There’s lots of weird stuff going on at PollyEsther’s. I kept coming across clowns walking on stilts, jugglers and women riding around on rings from the air whilst doing gymnastics. As for the drinks, there’s lots of specialties. I got a Very Brady Punch for $ 10. A Corona set me back $ 7. I was taken aback when I ordered a Vodka and Red Bull and was prompted to fork over $ 15. I only had $ 12. The bartender gave me a look, took my drink and moved on.
The clientele is mid-​grade here. Not everyone is super hot like you might find at the elite clubs on the strip.
The only other weird thing was the bathrooms. Everyone passes through a main wash area, then onto the restrooms. So if you’re directed to the bathroom and see only women standing around, you think you’ve made a terrible mistake. This happened to me.

Celebrating a friend’s birthday, we’re dressed in 80s gear to party it up at Polly Esther’s on a Saturday night. And the fab thing about this place, you can wear sneaks! Nice!
With no line at all, I was skeptical thinking no one would be inside. You pay by the window (try to get discount tickets or free passes if possible) and then you head down a few stairs. First thing you see is the old Volkswagen and then the Brady Bunch squares.
Bathrooms are to the left with communal sinks for both men and women. Quite a few stalls and there was hardly a line for them when I was in there.
Walking down the spacious hallway, you’ll find this huge space with four rooms celebrating the 70s, 80s, 90s, and current hits. Each room has its own bar with its own VIP sections roped off. They do a pretty good job keeping the music confined to its own respective room. So, if you get bored of one room, hop on over to another. And there’s barely a line at the bar too. (If you’re in the 80s room and you get The Matrix, it’s a two shot drink. They make it so big though that it feels like a four shot drink. It only costs 8 bucks and it tastes like shit. But it’ll definitely put you over right quick.) Other drinks are pretty damn expensive though.
We mostly hung out in the 80s and current hits room. They also had Skip Martin, the lead singer of Kool & the Gang, performing near the 80s section.
Overall, Polly Esther’s at The Stratosphere is a pretty cool place. It’s not uptight like some of the other clubs down the strip and it’s kickback casual for people like me who hate dancing in heels. Lines are non-​existent for getting in, buying drinks, or using the restrooms. So, that always scores a point with me.

The club itself is great with the retro disco lighted floor and 80’s room as well. The only reason I am giving it 3 stars is it’s located in the Stratosphere and the a/​c was broken in July when I went but if the a/​c was working it would have been a much more enjoyable experience.
